		<p>A <strong>Digital Citizen</strong> is a person who has the skills and knowledge to interact with digital tools appropriately.  
		There are several elements involved in being a good digital citizen:</p>
	
		</section>
		<section>
		<ul>
			<li>Access:<em> full electronic participation in society, from computers to cell phones</em></li>
			<li>Commerce: <em>electronic buying and selling of goods and services</em></li>
			<li>Communication: <em>electronic exchange of information; for example using social networks and blogs</em></li>
			<li>Literacy: <em>process of teaching and learning about technology and the use of technology responsibly</em></li>
			<li>Etiquette: <em>electronic standards of conduct or procedure; such as cyber bullying and respect </em></li>
			<li>Law: <em>electronic responsibility for actions and deeds; sexting, violating others’ privacy and publishing other’s work as your own </em></li>
			<li>Rights & Responsibilities:<em> those freedoms extended to everyone in a digital world</em></li>
			<li>Health & Wellness: <em>physical and psychological well-being in a digital technology world </em></li>
			<li>Security (self-protection): <em>electronic precautions to guarantee safety your privacy and others as well </em></li>
			</br>
			
			Your school may have a <strong>Cyber Safety</strong> and <strong>Security Curriculum</strong> that you can use to teach many of these concepts; if they do not then there are several free sites 
			that offer educators access to a K-12 curriculum.
